DANG, brother. Love and appreciate the specificity, and especially this: "The past and the future are a current moment of hallucination." The crux of meditation, allowing the hallucinations to drop... thank you for this...
"The mysteries of life are not served by exploring what they are. That route brings a false clarity to the mystery and therefore a flawed relationship with it. Mysteries are best pondered by an exploration of what they are not accompanied by an exploration of their traits."
Commas and time—good call, mate! I really appreciate your attention to punctuation, cadence, and the rhythms that can come with a reading. That’s the kind of sensitivity for my readers’ experience that I’m hoping to cultivate further.

Thanks for reading! (That was my favorite line of this essay as well…definitely something learned through meditating on thoughts…)

I love that...
I was always confused growing up in church how they described God as a mystery but seemed sure of all the answers…
So true. How much is lost when God is defined by the narrow mind of man as a reflection of himself rather than a universe of beautiful mysteries.
